I doubt it. Yugiri Mistwalker is more of a Doman name, one she probably took up to help hide what she actually was under her hood and mask.

I doubt it as well, but at the same time presumably the Au Ra are also from Doma, or at least the ones we're playing. So it wouldn't surprise me too much.

Well, the Au Ra themselves are actually from Othard, or however you spell it.

If that's the case, we might be able to piece together some of the naming conventions using all the Doman names we've encountered so far.

We could get a good idea of Doman naming conventions, yeah. However, the Au Ra will very likely have different conventions from the Doman Hyur. They may be from the same continent but we have to remember each race has they're own history and culture.

I'd also doubt that Yugiri strictly ties into general Au Ra names, for reasons others already covered. I'm also willing to wager that there probably won't be any apostrophes involved like the miqo'te have. I've noticed a lot of people writing it as "Au'ra" when it's not, it was shown as two separate words "Au Ra", no apostrophe.

Ah yes indeed, a cardinal he is u_u

I hope they're not named like that, it'd be kinda boring :/

I suppose a purely plausible explanation would be that Yugiri was simply raised by Hyur's and that's why she has the name she does. I only brought her up because she's the only one we know of so far, and most NPC's seem to use the same naming convention of their race in general.

I suppose it's also possible she's using a fake name, but that seems less plausible.

Likely then, they're actually a subspecies of Gojira / Godzilla. Au Ra ==> Gold Radium ==> The Golden ones with Radioactive Breath.

What?
